My first time rdwc grow

Thanks for the input. Ill have to do some measuring & decided once I get back in town after the weekend. I know it will be too tall in another 30 days (at 31 days now) but thinking it should be at least 18" above the bucket before flip…

Right on. Well do your thing. My first net is around 16-18 from the top of my pots. Soon as it’s full I flip.

Current run I just flipped.


This is 3 weeks prior to netting, all different clones from moms.

I’m using coco with high frequency feed, so not exactly the same.

Usually My second net is 16”-18” from the first net, and this is generally where I end up. This is one of my many prior runs.

Ended 6’-7’ tall for some. strain dependent though. As of lately I’ve been running several strains at once.

In tents I run em low as I can get away with. :call_me_hand:t3:

Outstanding. 16 to 18 from top of pot is what I was thinking but might lower that number a little as I don’t want to end up as tall as your outstanding girls…I have 7 feet inside the tent to the bottom of filter but the buckets are tall.i am not going for max yield but more to make it through without screwing up too bad. Would love some killer buds too…

Not yet for me, but hopefully soon.

Appreciate the kind words. As long as you control the parameters you should get some killer bud. Outgrowing the tent is no fun, lol. Been there a couple times pushing the envelope. You could always move the filter outside of the tent if push comes to shove for a few more inches. Some strains are really squat and need boosters. Some will try and reach the sky… :grimacing: You got this :call_me_hand:t3:

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I hope so. I would rather error on the side of caution this first grow for sure. Be more bold later on maybe. Appreciate the help

Low can I ask you some more specifics of how you grow and what types of yield your getting? You show up everywhere I look and the analytical approach you have is just awesome!

I love it. Chech out PA Hydroponics. Store manager & hydro designer is named Gary & he has a bunch of videos showing him building the different systems. I ended up with the system that has 4 buckets inside the tent & a remote reservoir outside. All 13 gallons each. He builds quite a few different designs. Definitely worth watching if your on the fence about which one (or brand) to buy. I don’t think I could possibly be happier with my system. Any failures are caused by me.

Only took two picture today of 1 plant, before i tore into the girls. Kinda rough treatment was required to get all of the velcro straps off that were holding the training rods in place. As soon as i started i knew these should have been removed days ago. Anyhow, they did their job & now they are gone. Did a little defoliation where needed to get some light inside the bush.
Above 3 hours later they are bouncing back, so I’ll get some more pics later in the week. I think today is day 35 or 36.

All 4 girls seemed to have bounced back nicely from the rough treatment yesterday.





Did a count & today is actually day 37 since 2" seedlings placed in the net pots & into the tent. Planning to flip them after about 10 inches more vertical growth… ?
